Next chapter in 3-6 hours probably.

Year 7446, Month 6, Day 30

With my right hand still on the grip, trying not to make as much sound as possible, even then maintaining a reasonable speed I was sneaking up to the Minotaur. First off I should try to get into a position where it wouldn't be able to see me and I'm an advantage but there's already nowhere left to hide in this plaza that's as bright as day.

In terms of positions there's the dirt walls of the 50 meter or so pillar and at the entrance to what is most likely the center teleport crystal, then what is probably a Minotaur monster should have it's back to that entrance guarding it from about 3 meters away.

I looked for a chance when it was looking around holding it's battle axe and faced the other direction to throw the rock as far away from the entrance as possible. Hearing something hit the ground a bit of distance away the mino quickly turned back to the front and took a few steps that direction.

As expected it was impossible to get it's back completely facing over here but I can sneak up from it's left back side.

It's stature is easily a head above 2 meters and it's physique resembles the Hollywood action star from years back, Arnold.Schwarzenegger, with it's bulging and brawny muscles that show off it's strength. If it's head was the same as Schwarzenegger like this, then it would be a double of his successful work, King of Barbarians.

Still, even I can boast a reasonable body right now. Though in terms of height I'm barely at 180 cm.

However, normally I think it's intended to be surrounded with an entire party and beaten but unfortunately right now I've been split up from my party so I have to do something about this alone.

My spell {Invisibility} already shouldn't last that much longer. Right now about the only advantage I have is that up until just before I attack my body can't be seen. In order to make the best use of that I'd like to ambush it from behind.

I hurry as fast as I can using stealthy footsteps.

If possible I'd like to get directly behind it and deal one stab through it's heart(since it's a humanoid I'm assuming it's around the left chest but goblins and hobgoblins have hearts in the right side of their chest you know).

Even if that's not where it's heart is I should be able to seriously injure it.

If getting directly behind it is impossible then it's fine as long as the first attack hits a blood vessel.

Especially one that's as thick as possible. It'd be ideal if I could slit it's neck, groin, or sides but that's a bit unreasonable.

Another 10 meters.

The mino is still observing the area where the rock fell.

That's good.

Just like that don't move.

I'll stab you in the left flank and gouge it out.

If I have good luck it'll be the kidney.

Another 5 meters.

The mino that was holding it's battle axe on guard with both hands, let go with it's left hand and stood straight up.

So it intends to return to it's original position?

This is bad.

If you're going to turn around and return then face the direction with your back to me!

But there's another 3 meters.

I line up the bayonet on my waist and enter the stance for a thrust before taking the last step forward.

With a snap my body returned to normal from the invisibility.

My hand that was holding the bayonet and feet that I couldn't see until now entered my sight.

Ei! To hell with it!

Eat this!!

Unfortunately the mino seems to be turning this direction to return to it's original position.

It ended up taking the shape of me charging into it from the front.

However, the blade of my bayonet is already right in front of the mino's stomach.

I stabbed the blade into the base, twisted and gouged it before pulling it out.

The mino's eyes went wide at the sudden and unexpected attack.

But, it's face quickly twisted in rage as it let out a battle cry like "Vumooo~!!!" and lifted the battle axe with one hand before compactly swinging it.

I jumped back with all of my power and avoided that attack.

If I was even a moment late the axe probably would have wedged into my body straight through my left arm.

My left arm would have been detached from the upper arm and my heart would have been destroyed I'm sure.

I can feel a cold sweat run down my back.
